All, I've narrowed down my smoke and oil leak issue. The flexi pipe joint requires replacing which isn't a massive job and fairly straight forward, however there is a very small oil leak coming from something just above the flexi joint. Pic attached, anyone know what it is? I did think it was...

I parked my Saab 9-3 2001 coupe on a hill facing up. I moved it forward and noticed wet patches where the car had been about halfway up the cars length. After some detective work there were drips coming out of purpose filled (feels like rubber) holes on the under carriage. Is this normal or...

2004 9-3 ss 1.9tid Hi, when picking the car up from a long stay carpark after holiday we found the front passenger footwell soaked. I'd previously sealed the cabin filter housing and cleared the drain etc, but rechecked it again anyway- all good. I got out the hosepipe and discovered that the...

Hello everybody, Saab 93 convertible, non turbo, 2.3i engine B234i. 1998. I have just noticed, that my distributor is dripping oil and after reserch, I've discovered that there is a internal oil seal that is prone to hardening over time. Has anybody managed to take the distributor apart...

Hi guys, I had a look underneath my 9-5 today and noticed a small drop of oil hanging down from a clamp between exhaust side and intake side of the turbo, right next to oil-to-sump return pipe: Picture taken from underneath the car. Is there a seal? Maybe the clamp is just loose - it's...

Anyone any ideas what the problem could be? It's in line with front wheeels and just of centre.Slightly more drivers side. Just noticed it, screen wash wasn't lower then i'd expect and car temp didn't get any higher then normal. Just seems to be a constant drip.

My MY99 9-3 lpt has started to drip oil from somewhere at the front of the engine on the drivers side of the car. Any ideas what this could be? Haynes tell me that the car doesnt have an oil cooler? There's no sign of a leak that I can see around the engine looking from above Its too dark to...

Hi All about May of this year I had a coolant loss - lost 500ml in 2months from being serviced. Saab couldn't find any problems and suggested that it was just air in the system from when they did the service. Then a few months ago same thing lost about 500ml, enough for the warning on the SID...

My D reg 900 has a slow drip from the bottom of the engine. There are no other symptoms, nothing looks wet from the top, it seems to be coming from near to one of the belts (that I replaced recently) is it the water pump? Any ideas on how I can determine where the fault is? Any advice is most...

Hi, After replacing some coolant hoses, I noticed a "drop on a hot plate" sizzling noise after a drive. At first I thought I hosed the hose job, but then I found that the drops are coming from this hose: What is it, and why is it dripping? Cheers, F.

I noticed earlier that my car was dripping fluid on to the floor. The leak is comng from the engine bay area and on inspection it is clear and cold liquid. It is not dripping at the moment. Prehaps it is nothing to worry about, but I just want to be on the safe side. Could it be from the...
